    Paramount Pictures

    As theaters slowly re-open amid the COVID pandemic, Paramount executives give the John Krasinski-directed thriller a push back to April, and the Tom Cruise-starring film a summer release.
    Jul 25, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The sequels for “A Quiet Place” and “Top Gun” have slipped to 2021 following the news Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet” no longer has a firm release date.
    News of the calendar switch for the early Oscars favourite has prompted another major studio date merry-go-round with Disney bosses announcing plans to pull “Mulan” from the U.S. release schedule and push new “Avatar” and “Star Wars” films back another year.
    And now Paramount executives have handed “A Quiet Place: Part II” and “Top Gun: Maverick” new dates – John Krasinski’s thriller will now hit cinemas in April (21), while Tom Cruise’s new film will now be a summer release. The “Top Gun” sequel was set for a Christmas release.
    The news comes as U.S. cinemas slowly re-open amid the COVID crisis, but not at the rate studio bosses had hoped.

    Charlize Theron Offended by Sexist Car Training in 'The Italian Job'

    Paramount Pictures

    The ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ leading lady reveals she was ordered to take six weeks more car training that her male co-stars for the 2003 heist action movie.
    Jul 25, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Charlize Theron was insulted while preparing for 2003 heist movie “The Italian Job” when producers insisted she take six weeks more car training than her male co-stars.
    Theron, Edward Norton, Jason Statham, and Mark Wahlberg had to do their own driving in the fast-paced film and producers wanted to make sure they were ready for the stunt work behind the wheel.
    During a [email protected] panel, the Oscar winner said, “The Italian Job was a great experience, in the sense that I realised there was still so much misconception around women in the genre, even though in that film the action is really based on cars. We had to physically do a lot of that stuff. The only good thing that came out of that experience was that there was a real pressure to pull off those stunts with the actors.”
    “But there was a very unfair process that went with that – I was the only woman with a bunch of guys and I remember vividly getting the schedule in our pre-production (period) and they had scheduled me for six weeks more car training than any of the guys. It was just so insulting, but it was also the thing that put a real fire under my a**.
    “I was like, ‘Alright, you guys wants to play this game? Let’s go.’ And I made it a point to out drive all of those guys.”
    She was so proud of her driving in the film, especially after Wahlberg threw up during a scene, and admits the perception of female action stars has changed in the last 15 years. “The good news now is that we’ve kind of changed the genre for women,” she said. “I think there’s great evidence where we now know you can’t hide behind ignorance anymore. Audiences love these films.”

    Jul 25, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “The Umbrella Academy” star Emmy Raver-Lampman has replaced Kristen Bell on Apple’s animated series “Central Park” after the “Frozen” actress stepped down because she wasn’t mixed race.
    Bell opted to give up the voice role of Molly Tillerman because she felt she wasn’t the right representation for the part, and suggested creators should give Molly an authentic black voice.
    Emmy’s casting news comes hours before the season one finale of Central Park, which airs on Friday night (24Jul20).
    A statement from the show’s creators reads, “After an extensive casting process that brought a number of incredible contenders to the forefront of our Molly search, we could not be more thrilled, honored, and certain that we have found the perfect marriage of character to voice in the amazing Emmy Raver-Lampman.”
    “From the moment we heard her Molly, we knew she was the right choice. Her comedic chops, endearing spirit and other-worldly singing prowess have us jumping with joy at the possibilities of this already wonderful character moving forward.”
    Bell will voice another role on the show, which also features the voice talents of co-creator Josh Gad, Leslie Odom Jr., Kathryn Hahn, Tituss Burgess, Daveed Diggs, and Stanley Tucci.

    In some pictures that obtained by Daily Mail, the KKW Beauty founder was seen filming for her family’s long-running TV show on Wednesday, July 22. Joining her were Khloe Kardashian and her ex and baby daddy Tristan Thompson as film crew was trailing behind them.
    That was the day when Kim broke her silence on Kanye’s Twitter rant. In her statement, Kim called her husband “brilliant but complicated,” adding, “Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words do not align with his intentions.” She ended her note by asking fans for compassion and empathy and thanked everyone who has expressed concern for the rap star’s wellbeing.
    Back to the “KUWTK” filming, according to PEOPLE, “there was a long break because of COVID, but the show has been filming for the past couple of weeks.” A source also says to the publication that the E! show is now “on schedule.” It is said that the shooting on Wednesday “was all about Khloe and Tristan,” who are rumored to be engaged after splitting over cheating scandal involving Tristan and Jordyn Woods.
    Meanwhile, for those who are hoping to get a glimpse at Kanye’s struggle with his mental health on the show, it was previously reported that it wouldn’t be happening. A production source claimed that the rapper’s current bipolar episode wouldn’t be played out on the show.
    The insider revealed Kim reportedly made the decision to omit the incident from the show. They explained the mom-of-four takes her husband’s mental health very seriously and doesn’t want it exploited for TV show ratings. Production staff were also reportedly told not to profile any of the kids during the ordeal, to avoid seeing it in the future.

    Charlize Theron's Stunt Double Reveals the 'Intense' Feud Between Her and Tom Hardy

    WENN

    Dayna Grant claims she knew ‘from the get-go’ that things would be uncomfortable as there was tension between the two ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ stars ‘when we were doing the fight choreography.’
    Jul 25, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy were infamously feuding during the filming of “Mad Max: Fury Road”. Now, Dayna Grant, who was Charlize’s stunt double in the movie, detailed the “intense” work environment in a new interview with Metro.
    “It was really hard. It was hard because it was obviously I had to spend time with both of them and both of them didn’t want to be together,” Dayna said of the set atmosphere of the 2015 flick. “Usually Charlize would come in and they’d do scenes together, but they didn’t want to do scenes together, so I was put in her spot to always be with Tom. Tom’s double was always put with Charlize, so we actually worked with the opposite characters.”
    Dayna claimed that she knew “from the get-go” that things would be uncomfortable. “We knew right from the get-go. We knew from the beginning that it was happening when we were doing the fight choreography… there was tension then,” she explained. “So we were told what was going on.”
    She went on to say that everyone was told to try to make it work despite the beef between the two actors. “And we were just told to try and make it work as much as possible, which was challenging because usually you’re all in one big group and working together whereas we were kind of separated,” Dayana said.
    Back in May, the cast of Charlize opened up to NY Times that the tension stemmed from their frustration over not fully understanding the film that was being made. “In retrospect, I didn’t have enough empathy to really, truly understand what [Tom] must have felt like to step into Mel Gibson’s shoes,” Charlize shared.
    “That is frightening! And I think because of my own fear, we were putting up walls to protect ourselves instead of saying to each other, ‘This is scary for you, and it’s scary for me, too. Let’s be nice to each other.’ In a weird way, we were functioning like our characters: Everything was about survival,” she added.
